Human decision-making is highly flexible -- some actions are taken immediately; others require longer deliberation. Language models have exhibited a similar capacity for adaptive "reasoning." However, transferring this capability to continuous control policies has been challengin…
Evolutionary multitasking (EMT) has shown strong capability in solving multiple optimization problems simultaneously by exploiting latent inter-task consistency, such as similarities in promising solutions or search directions. However, most existing EMT studies remain focused on…
Robots trained on real world data tend to be imprecise, slow, and brittle to perturbations. Improving these policies with reinforcement learning (RL) is an appealing alternative, but this process often requires expensive training in the real world. Performing policy improvement i…
